Sometimes it pays to listen to the subconscious. Rishi Sunak likes to imagine he is an above average sentient being. That he has decided to go to the US because he wants to get things done. To save the world from artificial intelligence. To talk up a trade deal between the UK and the US. To drum up support for Ukraine.
Only let’s think this one through. Rish! somehow thinks he has a better grasp on the dangers of AI than anyone else. Maybe because his own thought processes more often resemble artificial stupidity. The reality is he’s no better clued up than anyone else. Probably far less than the Americans, Indians and Chinese. But Sunak is desperate for a mission in life and is trying to position himself as a world statesman. Even though any global agreement would unlikely to be brokered by a country that had just severed its international ties with the EU.
